What a Day If I Spend It With You Lyrics ©2023 Sara Phelan
I’ll walk the Champs Elysees with you
You’ll stroll the gardens beside the Louvre
And as we tarry along, I’ll sing you a song
Oh to live today the Parisian way
What a day if I spend it with you
Now we’ll take a boat on the Seine tonight
And what a surprise when we see the lights
But we won’t feel our pain as we sip our champagne
Oh to live today the Parisian way
What a day if I spend it with you
And still the Eiffel tower has its power you see
To light up the night in the sky
While lovers below are silently kissing
Oh my dear look what we’ve been missing
Now the ladies are fashioned in fine design
Having chocolate croissant, foie gras and red wine
Tell me what is their secret they look so divine
Oh to live today the Parisian way
What a day if I spend it with you
And still the Eiffel tower has its power you see
To light up the night in the sky
While lovers below are silently kissing
Oh my dear look what we’ve been missing
Now let us pretend that we’re back in the day
Where I’m Edith Piaf and you play Monet
And as you paint the town I’ll sing another round
And we’ll raise a glass to the city with class
And oh what a day it will be, you’ll see
Oh to live today the Parisian way
What a day if I spend it with you
Oh what a day
